Flight Score
Departure
Use smaller, smoother aileron inputs to hold the climb bank angle near wings-level.
What happened: During Climb 3 the bank angle averaged 14°, well beyond a steady wings-level climb.
Watch for: Attitude indicator - bank angle, keeping it close to wings-level through the climb.
Arrival
Keep the back pressure coming once the flare is established, holding the nose up through to touchdown instead of easing it.
What happened: The flare arrested the sink but 114 fpm of it came back before touchdown, and in flights like this one that returning sink usually carries through to a firm or hard touchdown at 379 fpm.
Watch for: Vertical speed indicator: the sink held near zero all the way through touchdown, not allowed to build back up.
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,906 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 478 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Naples International Airport (LIRN) took approximately 5 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The Airbus A319 then began its departure roll on runway 24, utilizing 72% of the available runway length to achieve a takeoff distance of 1,463 meters. Liftoff speed was reached at 152 knots, with a local temperature of 17°C and a gentle tailwind of 3 knots.
As the aircraft climbed out of LIRN, it began its enroute climb phase, which started overhead Vicaria, Campania, Italy. The climb from 1,188 feet above sea level to 36,009 feet above sea level, an increase of 34,821 feet, was completed in 19 minutes and covered a distance of 121 nautical miles. The aircraft then transitioned into a level cruise phase, which lasted 11 minutes and covered 85 nautical miles, starting 1 mile east of Matera, Basilicata, Italy. The descent phase began 5 miles east of Lecce-San Cataldo Lepore Airfield (LINL), Puglia, Italy, and continued until the aircraft reached 3,092 feet above sea level, a decrease of 32,900 feet, in 18 minutes and covering 102 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 34 at Corfu Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (LGKR) was initiated from the south, with a heading of 354.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,086 feet above ground level. The landing was completed on the 1,906-meter runway, with a touchdown point 62 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 122 knots was within acceptable limits, and the touchdown rate of -292 feet per minute was fair. The runway touchdown alignment was perfect, and the runway rollout alignment was also satisfactory. The total landing distance was 1,432 meters, utilizing 75% of the available runway length. The total flight distance was 328 nautical miles, taking 59 minutes, and the aircraft used 2,407 kilograms of fuel.
The final approach to runway 34 at LGKR Corfu Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport from the south was executed with precision, with the aircraft maintaining a heading of 354.0° at 4 nm and 1,086 ft above ground level. The approach quality was excellent, with a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 130 kt, well within the acceptable range. As the aircraft descended onto the runway, it touched down 62 m beyond the touchdown zone, at a speed of 122 kt, which was also within the desired parameters.
The touchdown characteristics were satisfactory, with a touchdown rate of -292 fpm, although this was slightly below the optimal rate. However, the runway touchdown alignment was perfect, indicating that the aircraft was well-centered on the runway. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a light wind of 1 kt at 244°, contributed to a smooth and stable approach. The crosswind component was minimal, at 1 kt, and the headwind was negligible, at 0 kt.
The total landing distance of 1,432 m was 75% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing roll. The runway rollout alignment was perfect, with the aircraft maintaining its centerline alignment throughout the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was executed with high precision and control, resulting in a score of 99.0%.
